I’ve been getting a lot of “500 Internal Server Error” errors when trying to use the forums today.

Has anyone else been having the same (or similar) problems?

[brewer bob]

Same problem. Maybe there's more traffic now or something because of the Steam release?

[hirsute_offender]

lol yeah same. i think we are getting hugged by the internet rn

If the forum stats are correct this isn't even the most concurrent visitors in the last two years.

[Paaaad]

Can confirm here as well. Also errors about the connection being unexpectedly closed.

Edit: Took something like ten tries to get this post through. Couple errors about no response from the servers in there...

This has been my assumption.

Hey look. If the site is down that's just more time to play DF.

Look at the bright side, we will get new blood! Probably a few trolls or idiots with them, but it will be a net positive.

God these errors are annoying, hopefully they'll sort them out soon.

I literally just made a thread on this in the other General Discussion section, lol. It definitely seems to be because of Steam release.

[Lord_lemonpie]

It's been really annoying, but I hope it gets fixed soon!

[Bralbaard]

Seems stable now?

If the forum stats are correct this isn't even the most concurrent visitors in the last two years.

It's possible the visitors were not even logged because the server just dropped their connection, giving 500-code server error messages back because of all the traffic.

The errors seem to be gone, hopefully they stay gone.
